The only problem was that sometimes his big belly would get in the way.





Last but not least, this is the puppy that Jaxson almost was for Halloween before he tried on the chicken suit!

I got tagged to answer questions about my husband awhile ago and I haven't gotten around to doing it until now. So here it goes... to the best husband in the world!

Jaxson just turned 9 months old and I can't believe how quickly time flies. He has been crawling around now for about 3 weeks and I'm surprised that he doesn't actually explore very much. He only does it if he sees something that he really wants (like food). However, it is probably because all he would like to do is walk (even though he can't quite do it yet). He is constantly pulling himself up to everything so he can stand and cruise around furniture. Look out mommy and daddy here I come...

Jax with his biggest hero...daddy.
Brandon told me he had a surprise for me and then he walked into the house like this...a little scary.
Brandon and I got to go on a date, yay! I sure do love him!
And to end on a good note, this is Jaxson already putting the moves on his little friend Aubree. Jaxson, daddy taught you well.Posted by The McEwen's at 2:47 PM 7 comments
Let me just say how sad I am that summer is officially over (since I am going back to school on Monday)! As always it has flown by, but we have had a ton of fun getting situated in our new house (pictures to come later, I promise), going on long awaited visits to see family, and watching our little baby grow into the 8 month old giant he is now! All in all, we're sad summer is over, but we're so glad that we have these wonderful memories to look back on...

It was a long, fun, and tiring day!
THE BEACH-his first taste of sand
GOODBYE EVERYONE, WE'LL MISS YOU...UNTIL NEXT TIME!
Anyway, that's a brief look into our wonderful summer! We hope yours was as great as ours (I doubt it though...just kidding...but really). But, we love our families and our friends so much and we hope to see you all sometime soon!

Well, I haven't been as good about keeping our blog updated lately, but we have had so much going on. Brandon and I just bought our first house and we're so excited! We are trying to paint and get everything set up before we move in just so it is not so chaotic when we're actually living in it. We have lots of painting to do since the people who lived there before us had a theme in every room, most of which had ridiculous decorations and outrageous wall paper. Don't worry, I took pictures before we tore everything down so you will be able to see the transformations. That wont be for awhile though, at least until we get settled in.
Anyway, other than that Brandon has pretty much finished school, passed the state EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) test and is awaiting the fire academy and testing for firefighting, both of which will begin this fall. Yay! He is really loving it though and he's doing awesome. I on the other hand will be going to school for the rest of my life because I think its awesome and I can't get enough of it! Just a little sarcasm...actually, I am so sick of it and can't wait to be done. Who would've thought that I would become a professional student? I will be done someday though, and I will have my teaching degree that I don't even know if I'll want to use...we'll see.
On another note, Jaxson is a giant!! He is getting so big and it is blowing my mind. Didn't I just have him? He is 6 months old now and he just started getting both of his two bottom teeth last week. He is the funniest, cutest kid ever (I am quite biased, I know) and has so much personality. Here's our boy...
Typical Jaxson game face...he looks like a little old man most of the time!
